The heating account is 4 months behind. Hussain received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless $100 is paid. He had never been late before an unexpected car repair. Hussain called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which isn't available. The household includes two young children, and going through the cold months without heating isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. Hussain is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $100 goes: • Water arrears: $55 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $30 Thanks for reading all this. - Saima

  • Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Lahore!

    • Sending love, Saima. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in San Jose this morning.

      • Hope things get better soon, Saima. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Lahore!
